The road to DNX–part 3In part 1, we looked at an existing library that we wanted to move to core-clr; we covered the basics of the tools, and made the required changes just to change to the project.json build approach, targeting the same frameworks.
The road to DNX - part 2In part 1 I gave a brief introduction to the core-clr project and the key tools involved, from the perspective of a library author with existing .net libraries that they want to migrate to core-clr.
The road to DNX – part 1Target audience: library authors who want to get into this “dnx” thing. Unless you have been asleep at the wheel, you probably know that Microsoft have been working really really hard at moving forward with the “corefx” / “core-clr” / “dnx” / “asp.
